The release strategy for The Little Mermaid mirrors that of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 and other Marvel movies on Disney+: a digital release around a month before the streaming debut, when it used to be the other way around.

What matters is that The Little Mermaid is now available to watch on Disney+ after swimming to more than $500 million worldwide at the box office earlier this year.

And remember you can also watch the original animated version of The Little Mermaid on Disney+.

The Little Mermaid is now available to watch on Disney+, and to buy from Prime Video, iTunes and Microsoft Store.
